Primo is a unified search interface - a search engine, a versatile tool that allows you to search most information sources available to BUT. Of course, it is a substitute for the library catalog and allows full management of the reader's account. Here you can view the status of your account, individual books and fines borrowed, and you can also reserve and renew individual titles here.
